This sounds very very cool. I wish I was going to be around Friday because I would love to give the Canadian beta a try.

Not gonna lie, when J.J. told me about this months ago it was the final thing that made me buy an Xbox. Looking forward to it.

Gah...signed on as soon as it started, got to the Lobby and it said that I needed to sign in (I had been playing RB). So I had to click out of it and start again. I got to the Lobby again and it said I'd be a part of the studio audience. It took me to the game and I got to see what it looked like and then it said connection error and took me back to the Lobby. It's done that 3 times now and I have yet to get back into the game.

Got to play a little bit and it's fun! I got the lost connection message a shitload of times though as did someone while they were playing as The One. I played as one of the audience twice but as soon as I was chosen to be in The Mob, lost connection. I found all the questions to be pretty easy. As long as you keep up with celeb news and headlines, you'd get the answer right away. They give out a decent amount of points, the most I saw for the three games I played was 2000 and the lowest was 80. The advertisements were kind of annoying but it'll give you a chance to get a quick snack or have a bathroom break. The host mentioned some people 'on the air' and made fun of their profiles and they had a guy call in as well. If they fix the lost connection thing, I'd play it often.

Did they announce the next game? I really want to give this a try. This coming Tuesday and Friday at 11pm our time and on the 16th at 8pm. I figured that but it makes me feel better that they mentioned it and are working on it.

I finished up the two hour game and it was pretty cool. I don't know if I could see myself playing every time they have an event, but it was neat. I got to play in the mob once and did fairly well until they asked me what someone recently sang on American Idol. I didn't know they weren't giving away prizes during the beta so that kind of took some of the wind out of it's sails.
I really hope that the beta helps fix the disconnection problems because I got hit with them many many times.

Didn't YOU win MS Points? I thought you did. Go figure, the one time I actually get to answer a question while in the Mob and I get it wrong. Ah well. Oddly enough, I wasn't disconnected at all despite my problems earlier. You didn't miss much on the extended play, just 37 Canadian themed questions. He did say that playing it would help our chances to be The One but who knows if that is BS or not. Oh...and I couldn't help but laugh that you came up on the top of the screen just as the Rourke Wrestlemania question came up.

It showed and told me I won an Xbox Live Arcade Game, but they're not giving prizes away until the end of the beta so I didn't actually win anything.

Technically, the Twitter feed says that the start date is announced tomorrow, not that it is tomorrow. Although chances are, it'll go live any day now.

Man, everyone must be having a ball, since everyone is getting a "Session Full" error.

It sucked anyway. Now somebody give me Wheel of Fortune Live before I chuck Vanna White's cat off an overpass.
